Preventing vehicle attacks

One aspect not mentioned is "disguising" the barriers. After a mentally ill person rammed their car through one of the local television stations, large concrete planters with flowers showed up at the entrances of more than one station. This is an option for businesses that need to present a soft or welcoming image to visitors while still gaining some protection. As shown, there are also pop-up bollards and barriers, triggered by a sensor that reads the vehicle's speed. While obviously expensive, they are another option.
